Sergey Brin, Google's Co-Founder, is making headlines following his statement that says Google is hiring 'tons' of people without bachelor's degrees, at the closing event of Stanford University Engineering's centennial year.

Entrepreneur reports that according to Brin, although Google has hired several 'academic stars,' the tech company also hires employees without a bachelor's degree. 'Inasmuch as we've hired a lot of academic stars, we've hired tons of people who don't have bachelor's degrees. They just figure things out on their own in some weird corner,' Brin said.
